"Still cool", this "glam" hotel bar near Columbus Circle set in a "wacky", futuristic space (with a "glowing floor" right out of "2001: A Space Odyssey") is where "pretty people go to get hammered" on "drain-your-bank-account" cocktails; those seeking a "less noisy" scene head for the Library, an equally "stylish" if "smaller sanctuary" fitted out with a "purple pool table" and "hundreds of books", or the 15th-floor outdoor terrace.
